Welcome to our Social Supermarket Page
Building Confidence, Community and Resilience
The Social Supermarket is about so much more than food!
As well as paying a visit to our shop, members can join activities, receive support in making positive life changes and find a new community to belong to.

How Does it Work?

- Those referred become members for three months, paying £3 a week
- They book a slot at the Social Supermarket, which is open from 11.00 - 1.45pm Wednesdays and Thursdays
- Members can pick from a choice of healthy food, including fresh fruit and vegetables (All donated from local sources)
- During their visit, members can take part in activities, community groups and learn something new
- We will also offer access to money skills courses and other support to help members make life changes
- All involved are encouraged to share their skills and time with the community
